the only Power I have access to now is a IBM pSeries 510Q 4 * 1.5Ghz
Power5+ AIX server, which is on our intranet and in no way accessible
from outside. Sadly, its sitting 99.9% idle as the development project
it was bought for is on indefinite hiatus, but I can't see any way
politically or physically make it accessible to outside parties for any
such purpose. :(
Also, the Power5 stuff isn't quite the same as the PowerPC. Same user
mode, same basic instruction architecture, but the -system- level stuff
is quite a bit different as I understand... Certainly, a pSeries
server isn't a PC architecture machine.
